How to Win Against a Strong Enemy

Chapter

Observed lessons

When they have every advantage, then force alone is not enough to defeat
them.

Diplomacy and other persuasion may be enough to settle differences.

A coordinated method is to attack from all directions at once.

If they run away, do not chase them.

Discussion

Fighting a stronger force requires guile and strategy. History is full of
examples where this has been successful. It is also full of examples of
foolhardiness, where simple bravery and ferocity was not the answer. A good
approach is to divide and conquer, for example by tempting out and defeating
small units. Other methods include use of guerrilla methods or deceiving them
about your actual forces.
